Install the Linux Mint Themes and Icons on Arch Linux

Install required packages

sudo pacman -S git make ruby-sass

Keep everything together

mkdir mint cd mint

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/linuxmint/mint-themes.git cd mint-themes

Generate the theme files

make

Copy the files to the system themes folder

sudo cp -r usr/share/themes/* /usr/share/themes

cd ..

Clone Mint-X and Mint-Y icon repositories

git clone https://github.com/linuxmint/mint-y-icons.git git clone https://github.com/linuxmint/mint-x-icons.git

Put icon themes in system icons folder

sudo cp -r mint-x-icons/usr/share/icons/* /usr/share/icons sudo cp -r mint-y-icons/usr/share/icons/* /usr/share/icons

Cleanup

At this point you can delete the mint folder since you won't need it once the files have been copied.
